Jul 6, 2007
Showers and thunderstorms continued to produce flood producing rainfall across portions of northeast Texas as well as northwest Louisiana on July 6th. Moisture continued to feed northward from the Gulf of Mexico which fueled these thunderstorms once they developed. The region continued to be in a favorable area for thunderstorm development as an upper level area of low pressure remained anchored across central and north Texas.
